Dante Alighieri (1)

Remember tonight... for it
is the beginning of always.
- Dante Alighieri

Consider your origins: you were
not made to live as brutes, but
to follow virtue and knowledge.
- Dante Alighieri

Be as a tower firmly set; Shakes not
its top for any blast that blows.
- Dante Alighieri

For where the instrument of intelligence
is added to brute power and evil will,
mankind is powerless in its own defense.
- Dante Alighieri

The customs and fashions of men
change like leaves on the bough,
some of which go and others come.
- Dante Alighieri
